Peer reviewedTrammell, Robert L. – Language and Speech, 1990
Ten college students and 10 Ph.D.s read aloud 30 unfamiliar English words, 2 to 5 syllables in length of Greek, Latin, and Germanic origin. Each response was compared to the rule predicted, dictionary prescribed, and most frequent pronunciation for the word. Models of reading are examined in light of the results. (71 references) (JL)

Examines the nature of the convergent relationship between formal spoken and written discourse by focusing on three issues: (1) spoken vs. written modes; (2) formal vs. informal discourse; and (3) the relationship between oral ritual communication and written language and between ritual/written communication and everyday colloquial language.

Peer reviewedAbbeduto, Leonard – Language and Speech, 1985
The role of syntactic/semantic structure in the motor programing of speech by five-year-olds, eight-year-olds, and adults was investigated. Repetition durations were found to be shorter for simple than for complex sentences at all ages. However, linguistic complexity affected durational variability only for adults. (Author/SED)
